The launcher is still just awful. Its only purpose is to give me free games. It has never felt polished or finished at all.
Why would I want to use a worse product?
I use their website to get the free games then use Heroic Launcher to download and run them.
I just collect them directly through heroic these days
Oh, yeah. Forgot you could do that through the embedded web browser. Really, I only get them when I see the deals pop up on Lemmy. I’ll ‘purchase’ it on my phone. I haven’t even opened Heroic in a while.
Now that is a serious big-brain maneuver!
